Love Thyself to Love God

Love Thyself to Love God - (3874)

The way to love our Being is through ourselves. To send our love to the Being we have to go higher up in ourselves and from there send our love. You can only embrace those higher parts of yourself and really go there when you love them. Like loving the virtues, the values,the soul, the consciousness etc.

How for God's sake can we be in our own abyss identified with some rubbish ego hating ourselves and the whole world, and trying to love our Being. Ah come'on, just nonsense - too stupid to even think about.

It just does not make sense to love the Being and not yourself. But of course loving yourself in the right way.

To love ourselves in the right way is to take care of what enters ourselves and to take care of what happens within us. To hate another is to poison ourselves first, to accept all sorts of negative impressions is to make us harm ourselves also, that is not love but we are so stupid, we allow all that in and hold grudges, resentments and negative concepts left right and centre.

When we love ourselves in the right way we make a nice dwelling for our Being inside of ourselves and we call our Being closer.

We sometimes make the mistake thinking that we don't need the Being for our life and you know being honest, we don't really, we can do all the things of normal life without the Being, like shopping, driving, working, socializing etc. but for our inner life to be beautiful and harmonious and in order and balance, we need the Being.

We need to bring the Being into our interior and make It the centre. The Being is our head, the central point of our circle and when the Head is not present everything goes awry. Just like the good old saying, "the mice will play when the cat's away" and when the teacher steps out of the classroom the students run amok. The Being is the 'cat' and the 'teacher'. So banishing the Being brings chaos and confusion sooner or later to our interior and then to our outer life.

I find that the best way to keep our Being in our centre, at the head inside of ourselves is by loving It and to love It we must love ourselves. Love ourselves but in the right way.

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure. Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this. In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
